1 Week Away! ⭐ Attend this virtual workshop to l 1 Week Away! ⭐ Attend this virtual workshop to learn about what you should have in your rigging bag as a performer.

⛓️In this workshop, we'll look at what you need to have on your technical sheet and in your rigging bag so that you can show up to a gig and be prepared. ⚠️You'll leave the workshop with a better understanding of what you need to set up your act, how to pack it and move it all safely, and how to communicate your staging and rigging needs to your client.

This workshop is designed for aerialists, but also useful for anyone who travels with lots of equipment/props or rigging.

📆Join us virtually, live on March 27 from 4:30-6 pm EST. Or, sign up and get a video recording to watch later if you can’t attend live.

✅Register online at our bio link and WORKSHOPS
